including some residents trying to escape the familiar. i'd like to see the the river rose in half an hour and we've lost almost everything, or even everything is, i mean, it was frightening over my wife's to carry my daughter in her arms when the waltz was almost chest. trying to escape. today is a to nothing else. as a tragedy is the people who have died and there is be many, there were many people who lost their lives. these are my savings, my efforts, my life. we are live, maybe they'll say to some what reverse a years worth of rain fell in just a salaries in parts of valencia, tony village streets into raging rivers. people took shelter wherever they could, hoping not to be swept away in the torrents. like so many vehicles,

the president said, warnings came too late and gave no indication of the severity of the storm. emergency workers risk their lives to mount dramatic rescue missions in the midst of the downpour of to so much rain. fresh water is in short supply with people cuing to fill bottles. supermarkets have been stripped, bare of supplies. some areas have been left without electricity, or communications. road and rail lines were swept away, cutting vital transport, links prime minister petro sanchez, called at spain's west storm of the century, and promised to release take a that as the, i know that behind the damage there a decades ago. that's what it was in life project. as we thought which today was thrown into and so that's, i'm saying that we will help you out with the time being with all the results of

from the state to confound if needed. the you repeat in union, not that they don't even know, but for some, the help will come to late rescue is scouring the debris for the bodies of those who could not escape the unpredictable forces of nature which scientist sworn was due to climate change. and let's bring in our report, christina, cool best law school in valencia's. he's been scouting through some of the devastation bring us up to date on the rescue operations. first of all, because many people are still missing like the lakes, the yes you to there. those are people that actually using the number is i'm certain we don't know it and they were it to a, a we asked in the is the each type of the region where those flashes look at to raise those out. there are the receives trying to find the bodies. if you're on the other hand that was a fixed, it is where i am night. now i am in on the coast is the slash please. like

a e s 12 pm. and then all those amounts from water, they have to come to to the coast to buy that. yeah, i'm a oldest most if you spent a wrong value. yeah. around the city. those at doors at the worst parts there should be. so i for that, we were to people this and so now i'm, there are areas where there's no water, there's no communication. so the situation is really, really typical. you can ever just are bulky roles, have purpose. so it, you cannot get there a bite by car, you have to get there by, by foot. so all these, it can be some say make the risk to teams and they're just crazy. and apart from the connections being cut off, the roads being lost, full cost is a warning of both bad weather ahead. yes, there's 2 more rain coming and you have too much in this. these are this winter gentlemen of the donna. it's like us here. it's moving at like

a circle around the canoes without and that's why the rest so many regions in different types of space, different types of spaces are fixed. it's like here in the mediterranean area here in valencia, but also a cavities. and that's, you know, i do see that seem to show also, but i don't, i'm not from, from if somebody is here, but it's moving like a circle and these rates are still going to hold. and they've been so many deaths across those parts of the south and east. what happened to spain's weather warning system? there were 2, when the weather war means i have these years, these nights last week, and we all knew that these are not what's coming. that's was, was at the, i meant that the service for, for the where the focus here is fate. we knew this was coming. but a, what we mean to speak with these, how much water was going to school at the people are no kidding, very angry. i, as we know how many people are now active, i'm this up here and a, we use

a piece i was coming, but what people cannot now understand is the a word this plus that's to say, it was like i said in the issue to the region i'm the plus was loops just were there, but why students and why did the nurse here in the coast so late? i because the other h p and we became down there. in that time we knew the most put me. so why do the other become before i'm that was actually for oldest people, there were still getting the kids from school, they were coming from jobs. they were still shopping, doing the shopping and they, they were trusting their cars. and that's the most i'm ready for the possible please try to be i'm that these were people somebody understand and proceeded. we've just been looking at pictures of some of the race can waive that spike, followed by helicopter risky with his putting deadlines at risk to save. others get

them out of the vehicles of cost. um, is this the type of thing spain is going to have to get used to in the future? well i have to say i have i can somebody, yeah i'm, we're used to these sort of the same stuff and we, we same. but instead of people are, we are create a folder because we're, we're used to these if they also need your f, i use you both this week to head out and have to clean. forty's coming. so that is, what is your head? but what we haven't seen before is this thing keeps the poles region sweet. we used to be a m, we're used to hear of a, b, c i most of what you want me to say. so it's not the same nation. so i guess that's what experts say it has to do with temperature and we have to be used to these

statements is to be sort of the term w report requesting a cool best plus go in valencia for us. thank you very much. but with less than a week before americans head to the post where like the new president, boast, democrat, and republican campaigns are in damage control racist remarks of this week's trump . riley and new york caused a natural, there's basically a comedians labeling of puerto rico is an island of trach presidential biden's responding gaff. his campaign team saying he only appeared to cold trump support his garbage caused even more trouble prompting the public and nominate donald trump . to maximize on the comments even takes him to the campaign trail in wisconsin in a garbage truck. the full, the president has been campaigning and key swing states. so has his democratic rivals, vice president commer her. both candidates accused each other. if so in division, the just 6 days left in one of the,

well, let's talk about that with political strategist, us from the law. he's desperate time for the states. so this neck and neck race and highly divisive last minute political campaign has been reduced to trash. right. i mean, the 1st of all, i'd say, happy halloween, a 2 weeks ago was mcdonald's now. it's a garbage truck in orange vests. so donald trump certainly knows how to put a message from the center, but let's talk about what happens. so donald trump seizes the moment and says, you know, i want to amplified this one that amplify the gap of jo bite and the input of front center in front of voters and sort of feed off the energy that, that's creating. i think it is a big problem for the here's campaign right now because she was the head. remember that big speech 2 nights ago? it's sort of a ellipse where she said donald trump has an enemies list. i have a to do list. i want to go to work for all americans. that was there, sort of message says not republican voters or hairs. motors that she's wants to be

the president, paul americans and all of a sudden she has that divide again. there reminds people of the hillary clinton comments back in 2016 when she talked about the baskets of tutorials. it's unfortunate where the language changes in this way when candidates stoop so long. but who do you think has the upper hand to the most of it? i mean, both the trying to play at the same game outside. all right, well i, i argue that game is slightly different. if you take a look at the, you know, in part racist rhetoric that came out of that new york city rally. but frankly speaking, this race is still a tossup. obviously messaging wise donald trump is sort of pulling the spotlight in the tension towards himself. but keep in mind, that's not where the election is being decided. the election is being deciding the 7 swing states and 1st and foremost in pennsylvania, i was just over pennsylvania and let me tell you the cares campaign has and g on

the ground. they have a strong ground game. they've got their volunteers knocking on doors. we see record numbers in early voting. now we don't know exactly how those early voting numbers split up. how many democrats, how many republicans have voting, but the n g on the ground is there. so i wouldn't say that donald trump is justin. good. try proceed with his to trump, the a trash car or just driving the message. i would argue that this campaign is particularly close and probably the closest one that we see polling wise at least. and becky know, as i bring it down to the cold messages again for our view is in the end uh, what are the campaign arguments of trump and harris? i mean, they both have very different visions for the us started that right. i mean, he can break down donald trump campaign, closing message into 6 weeks. at 6 words, he saying she broke it, i'll fix it. that's the basic message. he says the inflation is high,

the economy is weak. people are struggling at the gas pump and paying the bills. you know, let me take you back to 2017 through 21. when i was president and i'll get down the prices and i'll make you like better. that's his basic message. now of course, the economy sort of tells a very different story. we just got the numbers yesterday, 2.8 percent growth in the economy. that is happening the us right now, 50000000 jobs created. so you can make the argument that the economy is actually pretty hot in the united states lease compared to the standards that we see here in year. but frankly, speaking, coming on harris is trying a different message any she's struggling because of the fact that she, of course is still part of the administration. and there still is a sort of worry that the administration and joe biden instead of dragging them ticket because still his numbers aren't particularly good. so she tried to create some space and say, look, we're moving forward. i've gotten the cotton economic plan and our move this country for, but i would argue that the message from trump going into the final week is a little bit more chris with the message of she broke it. i'll fix it. i'm both

sound like they're trying to sell change, but at the end of the day it's the the bed of market. uh um, what is getting through to uh somebody, the undecided voters, the younger voters as well, and people who know, swing sites that you've been touring. right. and so i saw numbers that roughly a 1200000 people are still undecided and the 7 swing states that we're talking about. and i don't think you're going to reach those people over dw news or cnn or the new york times. so i think that's why donald trump is creating the stance the mcdonald started. and now the halloween trash, stunned because he knows that's the way you get in front of the cell phone into a mobile feed, into a tick tock, feed, people playing call of duty, or watching sort of makeup tips. and that's where he's trying to slide in with this type of messaging, because again, i don't think those voters who haven't yet decided. and by the way, i can't imagine how anyone is undecided after you know, $50000000000.00 of t,

v ads and a campaign that's been raging for months. but still there is that undecided portion of voters. and i think he is trying to create messages that sort of get through and get into those nice. you're a political strategist. why is he doing so well on social media? why? why con harris? i try to, i don't know, get a hands on using a tick tock and social media. i mean, it's free it's, it's not something that costs millions like it does with t v ads, right? i mean it's, it's, it's sort of, i'd say, almost a weird that a 78 year old sort of yeah. take talking guess the idea of social media. she's certainly just 60 years old. so way younger. but the fact is that, of course, donald trump is willing to go there. i mean, right now and normal politician puts out an apron, sort of fries to burgers at mcdonalds and enhance amounts. so that is of course

viral material that's going there. but let me just talk about, you know, what's important. now people will see this as a stand for what it is. some people will say he's actually one of us, you know, living the burgers. but in the end, you know, i would hope that doesn't matter which side you stand on, people will look at, you know, what's in it for me. who is going to offer me the better vision for tomorrow? who's has the better economic policies that actually, you know, helped me in my family? i think people can examine the record and then make the choice. so i think you've got to differentiate between the poly optics, the optics of politics and the stance. which obviously, you know, make a difference and they have made a difference in the past or whether people look at the numbers. and i think there is a divided their idols. i'd like to know what it's kind of mean for the rest of us for the rest of that's another individual who has fund a lot. thank you for joining us and thanks for your insight. thanks. i mean, by o covert russian influence deeply

impacted the 2016 us presidential election, undermining many vote. his confidence that their elections was safe from foreign midland. in the years since you esl tardies claim, they've learned lessons and a better equipped to deal with the threat. but they also one, the process hasn't backed off and other countries are also trying, they had been didn't you waste voters today will? when right wing commentator tim pool announced just over a week ago, 2 as 2000000 followers that he was stepping back from his successful youtube show. he said it was for personal reasons. so with that being said, it's kind of the weirdest way to announce that i'm pursuing, you know, my family life to the best of my abilities. and i would many speculated that the real reason has something to do with the recent department of justice investigation, claiming that he was being paid by russia to spread pro trump this information. the indictment alleges that russia funneled $10000000.00 to $3.00 political commentators, one of them assumed to be pul, laundered through us base shell company without disclosing to them that the funding

was for an authority say it's part of moscow's effort to influence the 2024 election, which they say has become more sophisticated since its 1st major efforts in 2016. although efforts to counter interference have also improved in 2024. in my opinion name, we have a good reason to be a bit more to mystic, so to speak. the for, it has been and you know, with smaller than in 2016. and the key reason is is because the, basically the bread, the performance on the sides of american intelligence agencies, as well as been responsibility for relevant media, oregon. still it proves to be a game of cat and mouse, while the department of justice managed to shut down the phone, the company funneling moscow's money to $10.00 pool. russia continues to generate a flood of posts from fake accounts on social media platforms such as x, instagram and tick tock aimed at us voters watch in the us intelligence community also says to other foreign powers or targeting us as upcoming election. iran and

china hotel, iran appears to be focusing its efforts at preventing from, from taking office, targeting particular groups, through fake websites such as efram majority in debt, black voters, and not our war in that veterans. to china, according to us, intelligence does not appear to have a preference in the presidential election, but it's focusing efforts on, on sitting down ballot politicians with mt. china views. investigators expose the chinese linked online campaign against marsher blackwell. republican congresswoman is aggressive, antique china stands has garnered national attention. we're going to have to break a lot more trying to save america. the beijing has insisted that it does not intend to and will not interfere in the us selection. while us national security officials have prepared for the threat of 4 and meddling, they haven't ruled out new methods that may only come to light after the votes are

cast. moving on to some other top stories taiwan is being hit by the biggest storm to strike the island in nearly 30 years. typed income great has been packing maximum of wind speeds of over a 184 kilometers per hour. waves of up to 10 meters high, up pounding the shows along the islands, mountains, east coast, with the type that has made landfill. with the full cost is avoiding the torrential rain will affect most of the island. dw correspondent james taylor was in taipei. i asked him about the impact of the type food as it made landfill. absolutely, well, the entirety of this island is essentially locked down today. schools, businesses, financial markets or shots in preparation for the arrival of this storm, the strongest type food. so hit time on immunity 3 decades. we expect this timeframe, so we can someone else is it approach taiwan eastern coast as it moved in from the pacific ocean, but still packing. some gust of up to 150 miles per hour. i'm bringing strong winds

and rain to the majority of so i want to have the course of today. i'm likely into the evening to the errors of most concerned that was as you alluded to in the instruction is in the east and amounts and as positive tie one. this is positive tie one where the infrastructure is not quite as complex. most bossy populates as an additional prime to the impacts all these type streams from those areas. we understand some, 1000 people have been evacuated from high risk areas and some 36000 troops remain on the stand by to assist with emergency operations in terms of the future parts of this type. and we're expecting it to move over. that's why when he's made plans over the course of today and him so tomorrow, moving allison's beside one straits, weakening again as it approaches china. the se improvements is a china where officials have already also issued warnings for the approaching storm . and you say the whole island is effected, just explained 12 viewers who haven't been to type one how you evacuate an entire

island. i mean, you can't just take everyone off the island, can you? yes, it is important to point out it's not any box you ation because say what happens when it's a type thing to is that cool inside one is the majority of schools and businesses remain shot with or to the residence to remain as home as far as possible, um the people who are evacuating to the original specific areas. again, as i mentioned in, in mountainous areas that are more friends of landlines. more praying 0 to receive heavy winds and rain. so it's not that people can be evacuated from inside of cities. um, people in cars to stay at home as far as possible. so life does feel strange. a lot of the new little operations and businesses are shut down. but it's certainly in those key areas is more, more prone to the west impacts of this something that see a bunch of patients. has there ever been a tie soon? season like this one this year?

yeah, we're only on the sides type food on this type thing. season inside one which usually runs from a to walk so, but we've had siphoned, gave me in july events, high food craft on teaching. so i want just a couple of weeks ago now the ultimate and now the slicing again, one of the strongest hits i want in 83 decades. i want to think climate census uh, ends of thirty's will be looking at is really the unpredictability of this of the storms we've seen with this to him. just tells me it's coming that's high frequencies and likely to be impacted inside. so i want him to november the only usual type thing season. and that's something that authorities looking ahead will be um, thinking about how to manage the unpredictability of the storms, the speed with which they're intensifying and also um the timeframe in which they can see it. so i one possibly in launching in these as demonstrated. thank you. for all the details from ty, there were simple stories making headlines from around the world. lebanon's health

was just on the $2900000000.00 us of hoping for the 2 percent drop compared to the same period last year. there are numerous reasons for this production in germany is too expensive and cycles are too weak. china has shifted from being as high as market to becoming a competitor. production capacity is october reduced at all fox mark and sites in germany and plant closures next, tens of thousands of jobs could be lost. so i'm just argue that costs in the country are simply too high. and i think what, what adds to the cost is gonna be higher energy prices and, and then the other price has been on the labor cost. plus, we also know that the german workers or german employees in general are normally higher qualified then then it please. in other countries, union representatives are demanding a 7 percent wage increase, which fox bargain had all ready to reject it into for us draft. however,
